About
Based in California, US, and founded in 2007, Viracta Therapeutics, Inc. , formerly known as HemaQuest Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is a precision oncology company that focuses on virus-related diseases. Ivor Royston, M.
D. , is the current President and Chief Executive Officer of the company. In 2020, Sunesis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. merged with the company, and in February 2021, Viracta Therapeutics raised USD 65 million in PIPE funding led by new investor BVF Partners, with participation from other new investors.
The company offers a combination approach to treat a range of viral-associated cancers and other serious diseases. Viracta’s proprietary investigational drug called nanatinostat in combination with the antiviral agent valganciclovir is a novel therapeutic approach to targeting EBV+ lymphoma. The company is also looking at using its inducible synthetic lethality technique in other EBV-related diseases, such as nasopharyngeal carcinoma, gastric carcinoma, and other virus-related cancers. Following the merger with Sunesis Pharmaceuticals, the company intends to continue advancing and expanding Viracta's clinical-stage pipeline, including Viracta's lead program for the treatment of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-positive lymphoma.
